…also, the following Friday, Feb. 27, will be my last night in St. Lucie… the Mets play at 1 pm against the Cardinals at Tradition Field… so, if any one is still in town, and interested in doing a MetsBlog Get-Together on that night, let me know in an e-mail…

Johan Santana will throw off the mound at Tradition Field today, for the first time since having off-season knee surgery, after which he’ll throw a bullpen session on Thursday, reports Bart Hubbuch in the New York Post.

Santana underwent surgery in October to repair a torn meniscus in his left knee.  In December, he told reporters he will be ready for spring training.

Hubbuch also provides a few exclusive quotes from Santana, as well as other details from Tradition Field.

…by the way, hubbuch got himself an iPhone, so i look forward to seeing how he, and the other beat reporters, utilize new technology to report in real time on their blogs from spring training… should be exciting…

…by the way, i’ll be down in St. Lucie on Feb. 18, through the following Saturday, Feb. 28… 

…to say, ‘i can’t wait,’ would be an understatement…

Yesterday, the Daily News said Santana plans to withdraw from the World Baseball Classic, ‘at the request of Mets officials.’

…the team has yet to release an official statement about santana’s involvement in the WBC, though i suspect they’ll say something once he throws this week… regardless, i think it’s been pretty clear for a while now that he would stay with the team and miss the tournament…
